Introduction: Lime is one of the materials commonly used in the construction industry, but it is also useful in the pig industry. Lime can be given to the pigsty disinfection, but also to the pig treatment of skin diseases, is one of the necessities of the pig farmers often prepared at home.
First, pigsty disinfection
With 1 kg of lime and 1 liter of water into quicklime, and then add 9 liters of water to generate 10% milk of lime. The pig house should be empty disinfection, after the pigs out of the pen to clean the walls and the ground, in the 10% ~ 20% of the milk of lime brush, per square meter with 1 liter of milk of lime brush 2-3 times; with the cooked lime powder scattered around the wet ground around the pig house, around the cesspool and sewage ditch.
Precautions.
1, the main component of quicklime is calcium oxide, quicklime meets water before disinfection occurs. Disinfection is based on calcium oxide dissolved in water to generate calcium hydroxide and release a lot of heat, calcium hydroxide will increase the PH value of the disinfected material, destroy the growth environment of bacteria to inhibit bacterial growth.
2, Lime must be used now, because it will lose its sterilization effect after a long time.
3, If the lime contains impurities when adding water may cause combustion and explosion, so we should do a good job of personal safety protection.
4, Don’t spread the lime powder directly on the ground in the house, then it is easy to burn the pig’s hooves. If the pig accidentally eats the food dropped on the ground, it is easy to burn the mouth and digestive tract.
5, do not buy a large number of lime, because quicklime easily absorbs water into quicklime, quicklime placed for a long time will lose the role of sterilization.
Second, the treatment of swine disease
1, pig scabies mites.
Lime, sulfur powder and water in accordance with the ratio of 4:6:100, stirring and mixing after boiling for 30 minutes, the liquid becomes brownish-red to cool and take the upper layer of clear liquid, sprayed on the sick parts. Piglets increase 1 times the amount of water dilution, a week later with the above method for the second treatment.
2, Pig necrotizing dermatitis.
Fresh dandelion and lime in accordance with the ratio of 2:1 with lime and water cooked (1kg) lime plus 350ml water), will be crushed dandelion and cooked lime powder stirred into a paste and applied to the diseased parts, to ensure that to cover all the traumas once a day.
Although lime can play the role of disinfection and cure in the process of pig rearing, but pig farmers must pay attention to safety when using lime.
